QuestionMy "puppy," Molly, has recently started acting sad. She mopes, won't eat, and just lays on the couch. A few weeks ago, I thought that she might be pregnant. Could a miscarriage cause her to act like this, and if so, what can I do to ease her?
AnswerA false pregnancy can cause this behavior. They go through all the symptoms without the end result. What she needs is either a playmate or a stuffed animal she can carry around with. It will pass once her hormones go back to "normal".
Good luck.
